Jacob and Alexis loved to fish! They fish from the moment they wake up in the morning to when they go to bed until something tragic happened. Jacob was fishing with Alexis's fishing pole and when he casted it out the fishing pole kept going and sunk before anyone could get it. Poor Alexis was devastated. Jacob was pretty emotional as well because he felt bad that he lost her pole. Well July 22 was Alexis's birthday and what did she get and new fishing pole she was so excited. We just went up to Trinity Lake for the weekend and Lex had to take her new pole. We got there on a Wednesday and by Thursday that little pole went to the bottom of the lake to join the other fishing pole. Another heartbreaking moment for Alexis. So my question is "Why do they Make kids fishing poles sink?"

My kids and I just got home from our little trip to the temple and my little princess Lex found my make-up bag sitting on the couch. I was still trying to unpack everything when I looked over and saw her putting my mascara on her eye brows. Who ever taught her to put make-up on, not her mother!!!

My kids and I took a trip up to the beloved Trinity Lake for 8 wonderful days!!! We had so much fun. Jacob and Alexis Go from the minute they wake up in the morning to when they are so tired at night they are falling asleep before they are actually put into bed. There days constist of throwing rocks for hours, going on boat rides and swimming when they are not doing any of the others. They would swim until midnight if I would let them. The week that we were at the Lake their Pa taught them all kinds of jumps like the Cannon Ball, 360, Diving, Heal clikers and more so they accomplish alot. Me and Makynna Just hang out on the houseboat relaxing and taking naps, Well just Makynna and the nap thing but I would have liked to. Even though I had three kids and no husband up at the lake for the 8 days I still enjoyed every minute of it. Just the hour enjoying the sun or the minutes of enjoying the great smell of the outdoors I would go back in a heartbeat.
